Description
Commission for Vaalk on FA.Vvlkn never smiles, but he is known to grin with an inherent cruelty dashed across his rictus. His expression permeates the observant in subversive ways, and his mentality is one that's always seeking to rip a creature asunder. He is manipulative, cunning and utterly brutal, thus it shows through his aspect and is easily reflected from his excessive pride blatantly shown upon himself. He is a vain dragon who adores himself and his capabilities, and it's something that's ubiquitously prevalent in his appearance. He always holds his head high and proud, his features emphasised upon any imagery designed to capture who and what he is. He makes a wonderful subject for a painter who prefers to draw a dictator, even then presenting nothing but sheer ferocity - the painter who draws him would likely find himself/herself dead when the picture has been completed.
It was a long time ago I did something detailed like this. I finally have some free time.
15 hours, Photoshop CS4

Oh wow, I LOVE the colors and concept of the dragon, very gorgeous! Gah! I wish I could color like you! DX
I see one little mistake, the head looks a little too big for it's body. But other then that looks perfect!

Thanks Rush, I also practice a lot with traditional mediums. It helps a lot.
Yeah my sister told me that too, but I didn't feel like redoing the head. So I just left it like that.

Maybe I'll play with my colored pencils more often, I just have a difficult time figuring out which colors would look good with which.
Lol, that's cool. I know how that feels, I do that all the time. XD
